One of Prince Edward Island's largest Information Technology (IT) service providers, is going to relocate to the Atlantic Technology Centre (ATC).
DeltaWare Systems Inc. (DeltaWare), will be a major tenant in the Centre, when the facility opens in August.
"We are faced with expanding our current facility on North River Road, or relocating, and with the opportunities within the ATC, we saw this as the perfect fit," said company president Ed Lawlor.
The Honourable Mike Currie, Minister of Development and Technology, says DeltaWare will be a very good addition to the ATC.
"This facility is not just a place to house IT companies," said the Minister. " The centre is about partnerships and developing new projects , and DeltaWare has been very successful on both these fronts for some time. We are quite confident the ATC will provide the infrastructure to allow the company to continue to grow."
Incorporated in 1992, DeltaWare Systems Inc. has become a recognized leader in deploying IT solutions. With over 70 employees, the company currently provides IT services throughout Canada, including all 4 Atlantic Provinces and the Territory of Nunavut.
"This is a great way to celebrate our 10th anniversary," said Lawlor. " The ATC will provide a wonderful working environment for our employees and the infrastructure will enhance our ability to continue to develop state-of-the-art e-health and e-business applications and provide innovative IT solutions."
